Spacious, classic Mexican decor, clean, open, able to arrange in-home chef-cooked meal/birthday party for 6 people…. Just a fantastic place to view of the bay and sunrise/sunset. Miles was great, our host.
Such an outstanding stay! Our host was extremely gracious, the home had every amenity we needed, the pool and hottub were super enjoyable, very clean and well kept. The location was perfect!

Ted was incredibly welcoming and gracious. Irma, Norma, and Sergio were great, and very friendly! This location is amazing - so close to so many restaurants, shops, the malecón, the Río Cuale shops. This was an incredible trip, and so nice to take a break from the cold and chaos of Minneapolis.

Our group of 4 couples really enjoyed our stay at this lovely villa. We each had our own bedroom with ensuite bathroom and AC. There was lots of room in the kitchen and living area to easily accommodate all of us and we really enjoyed dinners outside by the pool The location was perfect - close to the Malecon, restaurants and stores yet still nice and quiet. It was very clean on our arrival and we enjoyed having staff come twice a week to keep it that way. Our hosts were very accessible and attentive to our questions and requests. We would definitely recommend this villa!
Great air con considering high humidity Housekeepers were wonderful pool and hot tub were glorious and kept clean The location was perfect if you are up for stair climbing, the seniors managed quite well. The kitchen was a little rustic, bowls and plates were chipped. The microwave and toaster oven are in an awkward corner, but the charm of the villa made up for it! Plenty of body wash, dish soap and laundry supplies but shampoo was non existent. Some electrical outlets were a little sketchy. We were allowed to safely store our luggage until we went to the airport. Overall a stellar getaway and would not only recommend but would love to come again!

What a perfect escape conveniently located for a balanced getaway. Half of our group wanted to relax and the other half was enjoying nightlife and this location was an easy walk or uber ride away from everything! The hosts were extremely hospitable and easy to access when we had questions! Would def stay again!

This property is clean, comfortable, and fun! We loved having the pool and hot tub - beds were comfortable, privates bathrooms for all, and regular maid service by very kind staff. Good location - very walkable. We spent a week here and had everything we needed to have a great time!

Fantastic views, great service and close to everything Vallarta!
The house by far is one of the best maintained and cleanest rentals we have experienced in our 20 years of vacationing in PV. The views from the pool/patio are fantastic and it's only a two block walk to the male con and all that downtown Vallarta has to offer.

We had the best time! There was great communication from the host. They greeted us at the Villa with fresh salsa and guacamole then gave us a quick tour and instructions on how to work everything. The location was perfect we were within walking distance to pretty much everything you needed. We will be booking again when we return to Puerto Vallarta!
